The City of Light awaits you! Tickets are now on sale for the national tour of An American in Paris in Salt Lake City. The touring production of the hit Broadway musical will open on October 17 at Popejoy Hall and close on October 22.

Based on the Oscar-winning film, An American in Paris tells the tale of young souls in Paris yearning for a new beginning in the aftermath of war. The show follows World War II Army vet Jerry Mulligan as he chooses the recently liberated French capital as the place to make a name for himself as a painter. With the assistance of fellow ex-pat Milo Davenport, a wealthy American with a past she wishes to forget, Jerry’s life becomes complicated when he meets Lise, a young Parisian shop girl with her own secret. Soon it becomes clear that Jerry’s friends—Adam, a Jewish American composer, and Henri, a Parisian aristocrat—also vie for Lise’s love.

Directed and choreographed by Tony winner Christopher Wheeldon, the cast of An American in Paris includes McGee Maddox as Jerry Mulligan, Allison Walsh as Lise Dassin, Kirsten Scott as Milo Davenport, Ben Michael as Henri Baurel, Matthew Scott as Adam Hochberg and Teri Hansen as Madame Baurel.

An American in Paris features music by George and Ira Gershwin with a book by Craig Lucas. The show includes the songs “I Got Rhythm,” “‘S Wonderful,” “But Not For Me,” “Stairway to Paradise,” “Our Love Is Here To Stay," “They Can’t Take That Away” and orchestral music including “Concerto in F,” “2nd Prelude,” “2nd Rhapsody” and “An American In Paris.”
